Kirk Michael call to action following proposed new housing development

A public meeting is to be held in Kirk Michael to discuss the proposed new housing development in the village.

The call to action has been made after the announcement last month of Dandara plans to build 100 homes on land behind Michael Primary School, and the Department of Education had agreed to exchange part of the school grounds so the developer can build an access road to the estate.

It's being held on 20th September at St Michael's Hall at 7.30pm.
